Mission and Goals
The ME-SIG MESIG will use decentralized, permissioned HL blockchains to discuss and build user-friendly apps that respond to the relative disorder of permissonless permissionless environments, where creators and artists’ interests are significantly harder to safeguard.
Following comparative analyses of the technical challenges (and hypothetical solutions) facing filmmakers, musicians, novelists, poets, photojournalists, etc., these DLT apps/dapps will be created for content-creators and their publishers, irrespective of location or socioeconomic status. This implies a focus upon UX/UI concerns over command-line tools, all in the name of access and inclusivity.
Proposed Scope for a ME-SIG
inclusivity for a MESIG
The MESIG The ME-SIG will focus on the application of Hyperledger DLTs to media-specific and entertainment use cases. Such activity will automatically foreground topics such as decentralized metadata, digital distribution, copyright protection, royalty payments, value chains, NFTs (non-fungible tokens), tokenized content, counterfeit reduction, and registered digital ownership. By logical extension, these same themes will lead to real-world scenarios or solutions for cinematic, literary, audiovisual, and photographic publishers, to name but four.
As with other SIGsSpecial Interest Groups, so the ME may well lead to the Media& Entertainment group has sub-groups/sub-domains.Following the established activities of the Social Impact and Trade Finance SIGs, the TME group can hope to
The MESIG and its subgroups will:
Collaborate with other core Hyperledger working groups and project in the areas of architecture
—performance and scalability identity
—smart contracts
—and integration
Build user-friendly DLT ME applications on HL, focusing on user friendly UX-UI goals integrations over command-line tools alone, thus simplifying the workflow of HLF—for HL—for easier adoption by both artists and arts-related communitiescontent creators, developers, studios, distributors and all participants in the media & entertainment industry
Research different protocols—to build standardization across different parties and projectsinteroperability
Identify related reference architectures (business/integration or technical/infrastructure)
Work with businesses and non-profit or NGO communities alike
Share stories of civic success, failure, opportunity, and challenge
Encourage the equal involvement of both early adopters and student newcomers, looking to examine careers beyond the (barely existent) academic job market.
